Yes, he obviously is afraid of something. One thing to remember is that Epstein died almost six years ago. So anything that Trump or anyone else did is well beyond the statute of limitations now and they can't be prosecuted for it. Murder doesn't have a statute of limitations generally so if the files had evidence that he killed Epstein (or for that matter someone else) that would be a very different story. But I doubt that because the Merrick Garland Justice Department would have prosecuted Trump for that, almost certainly.Rideback wrote: Fri Jul 18, 2025 10:40 am David, whatever the explosive junk is in there it has Trump rattled. Murdoch's WSJ wouldn't publish their piece in the face of Trump's direct threats unless they had rock solid confirmation. Same with the NYT and its piece. Today's WH comments that they're asking Bondi to release the court testimony is of course a ruse because 1) it's not up to Bondi, the judge has to approve 2) the testimony is relevant to Epstein and Maxwell, not Trump and 3) it's the evidence that counts and that is apparently what Bondi will continue to sit on.
So there never could have been a "day of the rope" as the Q dingbats said.
Two big questions I have about all this both have very little to do with the orange filth in the White House:
1. This operation couldn't have been just Epstein and Maxwell. Who else was working with them?
2. Where did Epstein get his money in the first place? His known business activities on his Wikipedia page don't seem to add up to him being a billionaire. And he certainly didn't inherit the money.
